To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
History tells of but few who so blended the grace and gentleness of the friend with the dignity, courage, faith and manli- ness of the soldier. His public enemies, even the men who directed the fatal shot, never spoke or wrote of him without expressions of marked respect. Those whom he com- manded loved him even to idolatry, and I, his associate and commander, fail in words, adequate to express my opinion of his great worth. I feel assured that 89 every patriot in America on hearing this sad ne...ws, will feel a sense of personal loss, and the country generally will realize that we have lost not only an able military leader, but a man who, had he survived, was qualified to heal the national strife which had been raised by designing and ambitious men. His body has been sent North in charge of Major Willard, Captains Steel and Gile, his personal staff. I am, with respect, W. T. SHERMAN, Major- General Commanding. Ex-President Hayes, at the unveiling of the McPherson Monu- ment, at Clyde, said : In grateful recognition of the services and character ot Gen- eral McPherson, his surviving comrades of the Army of the Tenn- essee, and his friends and neighbors residing at and near his birth- place, Clyde, Sandusky County, Ohio, have erected a portrait statue of heroic size in bronze.
